  • PhantomSoup1 PhantomSoup (@PhantomSoup1) reported

    @paddjesh @grumpyreigens Also people that paid for Overwatch can’t login because of this issue so a lot of people lost not only the game but some the extra money they had left to invest in the game, and blizzard isn’t giving out refunds from what I heard

  • P1dge0nz Pidgeonz (@P1dge0nz) reported

  • Jesyli_ Jesse (@Jesyli_) reported

    Okay blizzard needs to fix overwatch 2 hit registration. And the aiming overall is just dogshit imo. How can someone enjoy the game when its still at the same state as in beta. Can't even play Overwatch 1 anymore, SMFH.

  • BobbyRCJ Bobby Camacho (@BobbyRCJ) reported

    @aaronkellerOW @PlayOverwatch I just can’t believe you guys sleep on your fan base and for that reason your game is having issues you guys weren’t expecting this. If it helps I got 2 of my friends that never played overwatch to play and like it besides the error problems lol

  • qxeenbey1 Xoxo (@qxeenbey1) reported

    @Qwik Sir respectfully we want overwatch 2 so please fix this

  • AeonJohan Aeon Johan. Xbox and Resident Evil Ambassador (@AeonJohan) reported

    @Qwik 24 hours and nothings been done to fix overwatch. I guess we should let todd howard know his incompetence and bs have been overthrown by you with this launch of ow2. You dethroned fallout 76 and cyberpunk 2077 on a very bad launch thats not good.

  • Denmakug0 Dann☕ (Very Busy atm!) (@Denmakug0) reported

    Dude the overwatch 2 que time is so funny like I be gettin in next then boom connection error

  • JonMcQueen Jon McQueen 🏳️‍🌈 (@JonMcQueen) reported

    How is Overwatch 2 STILL not working?!

  • NZeil Zeil (@NZeil) reported

    don't care about a ******* DDoS there is no excuse for Overwatch to be this broken lmao

  • 420chiefqueef Jamie (@420chiefqueef) reported

    .@Blizzard_Ent overwatch still getting ddos attacked i guess huh

  • MomoTheOkamer MomoTheOkamer (@MomoTheOkamer) reported

    @PlayOverwatch So Disappointed. Been waiting all day yesterday and most of today and got in just to be able to buy the battle pass and as soon as they have my money I get kicked out to errors and qeues. My excitement for overwatch 2 is already gone after all the struggle and still can't play.😡

  • LeoVesta_ Leo (@LeoVesta_) reported

    So here I am waiting in overwatch 2 again sad that someone has to ddos them and ruin my fun. Just gonna sit and wait till I get to play again because I really enjoy the game 😔

  • SmellyCandle42 Noah (Island Boy) (@SmellyCandle42) reported

    @rhiwion I've said this before but I think Blizzard's problem is that they're trying to run their FPS like they do their MMO while pretending that's not what they're doing. From day one nobody was entirely sure what Overwatch 2 was supposed to be. Is it a sequel or an expansion? Neither?

  • chlo_xii chlo♡ (@chlo_xii) reported

    overwatch is still not working hehe:)

  • SideProjektPod Chazzy of SideProjektPodcast (@SideProjektPod) reported

    @eldertrollspod I was lucky enough to not have to really deal with many queue issues. It said 200, then dropped to 90 super quick, then what up to 2000 lol, then I was just in and had no issues. I’m enjoying it for what it is, but I was also an avid Overwatch player to begin with.

  • ZEch0z Yor (@ZEch0z) reported

    @igspitonmyex @Qwik This was for a friend but for me, I logged in the game and immediately got my account merged. No issues really. You should’ve done it before the launch of overwatch 2 so it would be much less of a problem

  • JoshFortnite8 YTTTV_Arrow_WaterishTiger41 (@JoshFortnite8) reported

    I’ve been playing Overwatch since October or November 2016 and recently in the last 2-3 years it wasn’t letting me logging to my blizzard account and it still isn’t I’m putting in my login and clicking on forgot my password and is says this account doesn’t exist…

  • AidenAashtyn AidenAashtyn (@AidenAashtyn) reported

    @NaiNyestuff @PlayOverwatch @BlizzardCS I also use cricket and if I have to switch service just to play, **** that and **** this stupid *** game. It's probably worse than overwatch 1

  • curtisdied curtis (@curtisdied) reported

    I was mid game in overwatch 2, being the best healer ever and I got kicked… @PlayOverwatch I know there’s issues but damn :/

  • crazylegsjan Crazylegsjan (@crazylegsjan) reported

    okay so maybe its not going to be overwatch again, overwatch is having some server issues. its fine but at the same time also annoying that as soon as its an online game it has bad launches with DDOS or devs not taking into account how many people would play

  • jayjaiey Jay 😇 (@jayjaiey) reported

    @sIaytagIia its horrific. overwatch 2 has been under a DDoS attack since release. Its really hard to get in.

  • FumtasticGaming TheFummie (@FumtasticGaming) reported

    @BreezyFeather30 @OverwatchEU @BlizzardCSEU_EN I played a few games then restarted overwatch and that fixed it for me. I had the same problem on my switch. Hope this helps.

  • BruhKept KeptYouWaitingBruh (@BruhKept) reported

    @aaronkellerOW Of course I just want to play some overwatch 2 before I go to work but I can't because it's broken. Modern gaming is trash and game developers are bad at their jobs. This is the only industry where broken products are consistently put out. Learn how to do your jobs

  • NicolasTomio Tomio Nicolas (@NicolasTomio) reported

    I downloaded Overwatch 2 as I really liked OW but I sadly had to stop because of connection problems and now I was only being able to connect to the game 1 time in more than 10 tries and I get disconnected mid game #rip #Overwatch2

  • timeyowl timeyowl (@timeyowl) reported

    Okay guys I think i’ll probably end up streaming Overwatch 2 this weekend just to give Blizzard time to fix the game fully. I don’t wanna stream an “In queue” screen for 5 hours

  • CatgirlEvelyn 🍼🏳️‍⚧️ Baby Catgirl Evelyn 🏳️‍⚧️🍼 (@CatgirlEvelyn) reported

    I got into Overwatch 2 and now got kicked out, but have experienced two issues besides getting kicked out. One: I'm being treated as a first time player, meaning most heroes are locked despite me having cosmetics for them and having played them all 1/2

  • DeGeiDragon DeGei (@DeGeiDragon) reported

    and literally as I typed this, it had "trouble connecting to game server" and went back to 9000 just as I looked back. #Overwatch2 is a downgrade. Overwatch was a fine game all around, and now it doesn't work. How do you break something this simple?
